My Story

Hello, My name is
CHI-YING

I am a self-taught UX designer with a background in the education field. Currently, I am keenly interested in the VR and AR industry and actively engage in self-study using online resources. I derive energy from exploring, creating, and continuous learning.
‍
During my time teaching in a 2–6 year-old classroom, I served as a curriculum writer, caregiver, psychologist, and project manager simultaneously.

All roads led me to UX design

‍1. Teaching and UX design demand thorough research through observation and interviews.
2. Being a teacher and a UX designer involves playing multiple roles.
3. Both teaching and design necessitate considering the user's perspective.
